hi thanks for your inputs, i was so looking into this newly built spacious detached town house for a reasonable price, but this fooking temple making noises turned me away.

how do the owners of the houses really feel when they can't rent or sell their properties because of this sacred temple? 

or they have to endure this noise terror because they can't waste their monies renting other places or woot.

i read about an article here in thailand about some thai school complained about the noise temple makes due to their exam time or some <deleted>e.

And u know what, 50 members of the temple came to vandalize the school and injured many. this temple <deleted> is really fooked up, and really fooking up with ppls lives.

 

I feel like im gonna do some burn out or honk the beep to wake up the monks inside or near the temple in the wee hours,

if they really make others forced to hear some obnoxious bonkey buddha clamined noises. Im kidding ofcourse!!! 

 

 

i found the link that i wus talking about, and some random cases just found by strolling, not respecting the people's right to worship <deleted> form 4am in the morning??? fooked up self consumed reatrds...

Hi folks, I’m interested in moving to this fairly new detached townhouse but there’s a temple around a km away.

does anyone lived near the temple and had problems with the noise that u got to move out ?

 

im sort of aware they blast the speakers when someone gets ordained or something


A temple of a mosque? 

A Buddhist temple?  Chanting isn't going to carry 1 km.
A mosque?  You're gonna hear call to prayers via the loud speakers.

Personally.  Neither chanting or Islamic call to prayers bother me at all.

I am about 500 metres as the crow flies from our local temple. They start at 5am, chanting and xylophone music until 7am when the local leader does his announcement of News etc. Quite often the two overlap.

Got myself some earbuds/plugs, so no current worries.

If you live in or near a village, you're gonna get the daily morning village talk.  Then you need to ask yourself, "How close to one of the village pole-mounted loudspeaker is my house?"  And this has nothing to do with the local temple.

Personally I sleep right through it.  Welcome to Thailand.  You ain't in Kansas anymore.

Second-hand homes in Thailand are generally cheaper than new constructions, making them appealing to budget-conscious buyers or those looking for larger properties in established neighborhoods. The price of second-hand houses can be as much as 20-30% lower than that of newly built homes in similar locations.

The chanting is a big negative in Thailand for me. 

Dude (or Dudette) - You Are In The Wrong Freaking Country. 

:angry: "I hate Buddhism and Buddhist and their stupid chanting!!! Grrrrrrrr!!!"

I have a solution!  LEAVE.  Don't let the door hit ya in the butt on the way out.  You won't be missed. :thumbsup:

I have no problems with most temple noise. However, with the aging population, there seems to be far too many funerals, which are punctuated with very loud fireworks. Always poignant as we usually know the subject.

Yeah - Thais love their funeral fireworks.  Drives my dogs nuts.

Because they rent to Thais who are raised this way and who accept it, and even like it, and consider it part and parcel of their cultural and religious identities.  Then butt-hurt Western farangs post to AseanNow, "I can't stand Thai culture and these horrid, noisy temples!  Grrrrr.  And now, Thais won't rent their properties to me either, boo hoo.  Thailand and Thais are horrible!" 
Now ya'll can put two and two together and figure out "why."

I'm at a loss.  Ya'll come to Thailand as a foreigner and you can't deal with the "fooking" culture.  Really - why are you even here?  Nobody is making you live here.  If you can't stand the culture and national religion of a country - don't move there in the first place! 

"Fooking" Amazing...
